Connecting to Doctors Online for Prescription Samples

December 27, 2010

The medical field is continuously merging online, and now there may be a danger to the prescription drug sales force. The largest prescription drug company, Pfizer, now is making it available for doctors online to order prescription samples, undercutting drug salespeople by approaching doctors online. So while prescription drug salespeople are forced to travel, doctors online can simply connect to Pfizer and order the prescription samples, thus eliminating the need for the traveling prescription drug salesperson.

This is a testament to the medical field converting to an online service, led by companies like RingADoc that offer online doctors for instant phone consultations. So while the online doctors with RingADoc can provide safe prescriptions to patients in need, companies like Pfizer make these prescriptions readily available – and less expensive – to the doctors online. Here is a link to the article on prescription samples for doctors online from Peter Loftus of the Dow Jones Newswires.

There are both positives and negatives to the idea of drug companies offering prescription samples to online doctors, as many prescription drug salespeople are being squeezed slowly away from successfully doing their jobs yet the availability of cheaper prescription samples offered immediately by the drug companies to online doctors eventually result in cheaper and easier to access prescriptions by patients. This may spell disaster to many prescription drug salespeople, but it could open the doors to cheaper and more readily available to those in need of prescriptions from online doctors.
